Formula-editor for editing and exporting mathematical content

 FormulaDlg Image Settings Image

We needed a mathematical formula editor that was able to export the content of the formulas into a programming language (FORTRAN 77 in our case). Therefore we developed a set of classes described below.

Parts of the code are based on the work of

  • Chris Maunder (CGridCtrl, CColourPopup),
  • Alexander Bischofberger (CColourPopup),
  • Matt Weagle (CFormulaInplaceEdit),
  • Norm Almond (CFontCombo),
  • Shekar Narayanan and S. D. Rajan (CToolBarBtn),
  • Keith Rule (CUndo)
Thanks to you for your excellent work.

General appearance

The following files and classes are included into the source code :

Core Data Structure

bintree.cpp, bintree.h CBinTree The binary-tree datastructure.
node.cpp, node.h CNode The core node datastructure.
nodeentities.cpp, nodeentities.h see table 1) The special node entities.
bintreeformat.cpp, bintreeformat.h CBinTreeFormat, CFormatInfoOb Formatting information
undo.h CUndo Undo/Redo functions
 

Editing and Visualizing

formuladlg.cpp, formuladlg.h, formuladlg_toolbar.cpp CFormulaDlg A Dialog that holds a CFormulaCtrl and toolbar-buttons supporting formula-editing. The dialog provides Callback-functions which handle the CToolBarBtn notifications
formulactrl.cpp, formulactrl.h CFormulaCtrl Custom control that handles keyboard- and mouse-input.
formulainplaceedit.cpp, formulainplaceedit.h CFormulaInPlaceEdit Inplace Edit-Control. Behaves like inplace-edit control in CGridCtrl
formuladroptarget.cpp, formuladroptarget.h CFormulaDropTarget The drop target for the formula-control
matrixdlg.cpp, matrixdlg.h CMatrixDlg A Subdialog for parametrizing matrix dimensions.
formulasettingsdialog.cpp, formulasettingsdialog.h CFormulaSettingsDlg Sub dialog supporting the customizing of the formula settings (eg. colours, fonts ...)

Helper classes
fontcombobox.cpp, fontcombobox.h CFontCombo A CComboBox derived control supporting fontselection.
colourpicker.cpp, colourpicker.h CColourPicker A CButton derived control supporting colour-selection.
colourpopup.cpp, colourpopup.h CColourPopup A CWnd derived control supporting colour-selection (used by CColourPicker).
toolbarbtn.cpp, toolbarbtn.h CToolBarBtn A CButton derived control supporting the bitmap-based node-entity selections.
toolbarbtnctrl.cpp, toolbarbtnctrl.h, toolbardlg.cpp, toolbardlg.h CToolBarBtnCtrl, CToolBarDlg used by CToolBarBtn

The basic approach of the formula-editor is the representation of mathematical content in a binary-tree data-structure. the extraction of the content is performed by an inorder-traversal through the binary tree.

Algorithm Binary tree Output
inorder traversal through a binary tree
inorder (node)
{
inorder (left_child);
process (this);
inorder (right_child);
}
Node Classes Node Classes

The base class CNode was originally designed as an abstract base class, but it currently provides the standard behaviour of a node. (draw my left child on the left, draw my right child on the right and draw my own content into the middle). If you want to integrate a new node you have to do the following steps:

  1. Define a new node-type (insert a new unique NT_* define into the node.h)
  2. Declare a new node-entity in the nodeentities.h (derive it public from CNode)
    class CMyNode : public CNode
  3. Implement the methods
    virtual void Serialize(CArchive& ar, CBinTree* pTree);
    virtual void TransformRects(CRect& ,CRect& ,CRect& ,CRect& );
    virtual CRect GetContentRect(CDC* pDC);
    virtual void DrawContent(CDC* pDC, CRect rect, DWORD dwSelect);
  4. Insert a new button into a already present ToolbarBtn or build a new ToolbarBtn with your own node
  5. Handle the ToolBarCtrlSelected Event for your node (in the FormulaDlg_ToolBar.cpp file)

Please have a look on the implementation of the already integrated nodes for further details. Here is a list of them and ther interdependencies:

table 1) List of already integrated nodes and their dependecies

Please see the implemented TransformRect and DrawContent methods as an example! There are a lot of ways to code them much better. Any suggestions and refinements are welcome.

If you want to use this code in your project you only have to import the classes and to call the DoModal-method of the FormulaDlg.Please be careful with the resources. The resources for the toolbar of the formula-dialog are included via compiletime-directives (resource includes-submenu in the view -menu of the developer-studio)

#include "mathsym.h"
#include "mathsym.rc"
#include "FormulaDlg.h"

void CMainFrame::OnFormula() 
{
    CFormulaDlg FormulaDlg;
    FormulaDlg.DoModal();
}

Features

The formula-control has got the following additional features:

  • Copy, cut and paste (currently you are allowed to paste into placeholder-nodes only )
  • Drag & Drop (currently you are allowed to drop onto placeholder-nodes only)
  • Export into a Bitmap
  • Printing and Print-Preview is realized via DDB
  • Source code export (currently only FORTRAN 77 is implemented)

How to use...

Select an equation-node from the equation-toolbar-button. Then you get an equation with placeholders on the left and on the right side. By moving the mouse over the equation the nodes are highlited. Select a placeholder with a single left-mouseclick. Now you can overwrite the placeholder with any node you want. By selecting a node with a double-click, the whole subtree of the node is selcted (e.g select the = from an equation with a doubleclick and either the left and the right side of the equation are selected). If you select a variable-node, a constant-node, a number-node or a userfunction-node you get into the editing by another left-mouseclick.
